One way of reflecting on our faith is to have a careful look at the real meaning of some of the religious words which we use all the time. Very often, hidden in our use of those words, we can find an alarming degree of misunderstanding as well as overtones and undertones which are actually harmful to ourselves and to our relationships with others and with God.
Fr Jack McArdle here selects twelve such words at random and offers his own insights and reflections on them. As always, his writing is simple, colourful and challenging and his talent for putting things in clear every-day language makes the book a worthy successor to It's Really Very Simple and Simple Steps to Spiritual Living. The twelve words which he selects are: Sin, Incarnation, Brokenness, Religion, Spirituality, Heaven, Hope, Church, Baptism, Today, Wholeness and Death.
